Farewell – Sir Henry Cooper

Sir Henry Cooper was a gentleman in a sport that doesn’t have too many.  Although one wonders if recent British boxers have taken their lead from the way Our Enry behaved.

I saw him once, as he had been asked to open a new shop opposite our offices in Ipswich.  He was just strolling down the street confidently towards the shop, people were calling and talking to him in a friendly way and he was signing autographs and chatting to the crowd like only real celebrities do.

He’ll be sadly missed by all.
